Synopsis

“Man, can this guy write.”
—Ed Gorman, New York Times bestselling coauthor of Dean Koontz’s Frankenstein: City of Night

 

Fans of Jim Butcher, Kim Harrison, and Simon Green won’t want to miss Night of Demons—author Tony Richards’s second spellbinding trip to Raines Landing, Massachusetts, a hidden town of secrets and magic populated by descendants of the Salem witches. Following on the heels of his sensational series debut Dark Rain, Bram Stoker Award-nominee Richards delivers another masterful dark fantasy, pitting his all-too mortal heroes ex-cop Ross Devries and partner Cassandra Mallory against a supernatural serial killer who is causing bloody chaos in their mysterious village. Night of Demons is a night no true fantasy lover will want to end.

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

Centuries ago, the Salem witches founded the village of Raine's Landing, then cloaked it in magic to hide it from sight. Many of their descendants still practice the supernatural arts—and no one who lives here can ever leave.

Now evil has breached its boundaries once again . . .

A serial killer with a corrupt and twisted soul, Cornelius Hanlon has freely entered Raine's Landing, undeterred by the ancient magical safeguards. And when he chooses the town's oldest adept as his first victim, the maniac inadvertently gains possession of a powerful "gift" more terrible than anything he could have sadistically dreamed.

Ex-town cop Ross Devries and his Harley-riding sometime-partner, Cassandra Mallory, have no supernatural abilities. But they are the last line of defense in this village of secrets and shadows—facing a psychopath who now wields the power to bend the living and the dead to his will.
